The picture is slightly blurred, but I can make out the National
Semiconductor logo just below the Commodore logo.  I checked their web
site, but could not find any information that applied to this chip.

I have found a reference to part number 251065-04.  It's a Molex type
connector used in the 1982 version of the 1541 drive.  It looks as though
251064 is a valid part number for the early '80s.
